General Medical Council rejects complaint brought by a member

The General Medical Council has rejected a complaint by one of its own members that two hospital consultants were guilty of serious professional misconduct in criticising her. She said that they made “derogatory and denigratory comments” about her in email responses to a BMJ news story published last year (2001;322: 1565).

The email letters were posted on the BMJ's website, and are reproduced in the letters section of the BMJ today.
